I love that my job gives me the ability to change someone\u2019s life \u2013 whether it be giving a child a very enjoyable first dental visit, setting them up for a very positive dental journey, or giving someone the confidence to smile widely, proudly and without pain! Having known some of my patients for over a decade, it\u2019s been a privilege to have them entrust me with their dental care and I\u2019ve seen the difference good dental health and a beautiful smile has made in their lives. I really enjoy the human side of my work, getting to know the individuals and families I look after, and tailoring my approach to suit them.<\/p>\n
Dr Rachel graduated from Melbourne University with Honours, and has since committed herself to further her knowledge and skills, particularly in the area of Orthodontics (Braces & Invisalign.) She worked for many years in regional Melbourne, in both private and public clinics, before settling back in the Banyule area where she grew up, and now calls home again! With three young children of her own, she has a particular interest in treating children where her petite hands, patience and gentle (but firm!) demeanour come in very handy.<\/p>\n
When not at work, she is more or less a professional taxi driver, mediator and snack provider to her kids- thus is the life of a mum! Born in Wollongong, NSW, but raised in Melbourne, she loves her food and coffee, and would list her ultimate treat as a still-hot oat milk latte and being able to squeeze in a pilates session!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3317,"template":"","service_category":[],"team_category":[44],"class_list":["post-152","team","type-team","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","team_category-clinicians"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
